The Guardian University Guide is different from other guides and does not focus on research scores. Instead, it focuses primarily on the student experience and considers measures that include course satisfaction, teaching and feedback, and post-graduation employment rates.

The tables have been compiled for the Guardian by Intelligent Metrix, an independent consultancy that specialises in measuring performance in higher education. The rankings are based on official data collected by the Higher Education Statistics Agency (HESA) and on the National Student Survey (NSS), published by Hefce.
